SCHOOL ME ON RED DOTS AND MAGNIFIERS

There's been some discussion of that Swedish military Aimpoint over at arfcom.

Here are some threads on it:

If it were me, I'd stick with one of the mainstream models for an optic this expensive. Everyone raves about the T1/H1, and if I were going to buy an Aimpoint today, that's what I'd get. Instead, I bought the Sig look-alike to see how I like the form factor.

OK Since the questions been asked and I'm new to AR optics I'll drop a question in here.

I'm putting together a 9mm AR so this is definately a CQB type of carbine. Would the experts out there recommend a EO-Tech or an Aimpoint? Also which model of either.

I'm a total newbie when it comes to optics so please be gentle.

I have a Trijicon Reflex II with tritium triangle. It is great, no batteries required (remember, if it can go wrong it will) and very, very accurate. You should really give it a look before going with the EOtech.
